Equestrians all over the country are raving about the excellent performance of their Musto riding coat. These brilliantly designed coats have been created with the great outdoors in mind. In fact the company was founded back in 1964 by Keith Musto an avid sailor. He and his contemporaries were tired of having to sail and race in soaking wet clothing.

After spending months trying to find a company that was interested in making water proof clothing for sailors, Keith decided to take matters into his own hands and founded his own company. Initially the new jackets, hats and trousers were designed with the needs or sailors in mind. But it didn't take long for the Keith and the company to realise that the horse world was just as much in need of a whole new range of water proof clothing as they were.

Musto technological is particularly effective because it was first designed for use by sailors. The founder of the company, Keith Musto was an avid sailor who quickly became tired of being cold and wet every time he went out on the water. Keith thought that it must be possible to develop a range of wind and water resistant clothing that would make outdoor sports more comfortable. Eventually he went on to found his own company and his lines of riding and sailing clothes are now world famous.

The company has teamed up with Olympic rider Zara Phillips to produce a wonderful range of riding coats and gilets. These provide the opportunity for layering so that one jacket can be used for all seasons. Simply adding an extra layer underneath in the very coldest weather adds warmth but not bulk. It is still easy to ride even in the depths of winter.

A good riding coat is an absolute essential. Most people continue to ride throughout the winter months, either indoors or out. They need a jacket that is light enough to be comfortable, yet still provides enough protection from the elements. The classic Grooms Jacket is the perfect answer. It is contoured for comfort and has a strong zippered front. Combining breathable fabric with shower proof material it is one of the companies best sellers.

One of the most innovative features of the range is the ZP 176 technology. This incorporates many special features such as breathable fabrics that actually draw moisture away from the rider. This is a great feature that is especially useful for those who are training hard for competition.

The Warm Up Jacket is also breathable, but adds an extra layer of protection. It is water proof and also incorporates four way stretch and is perfect for the active rider. It can be teamed with an additional liner layer for cold weather riding. It is available in sizes eight to eighteen.
